The wedding will be a formal affair at the Japanese American National Museum in Los Angeles. (Takei is one of its founders.)

The couple are still working on wedding plans. But they've already settled on a few things that reflect their eclectic taste as well as their respective backgrounds. Scottish bagpipes will play during the ceremony and a Mexican-American Buddhist minister will officiate. They've ordered matching Native American turquoise and silver rings. And the wedding dinner will feature fusion Japanese-Mexican cuisine.
